Can you say PSYCHO??? in a funny way...

My Sister in law strikes again at how protective she can be with her 11 month old son:

Message from her this afternoon:

"oh hey last night we watched The Blind Side on tv, and there's this scene where sandra bullock takes her son the football player to his first day at college, and she hugs him goodbye

and i started crying
NOT bc the movie was sad, or it was a touching moment

i grabbed XXX's arm and i said, "(wah) I'm not ready to let our 11 month old go to college!!!!!"

if he wants to go far away, like more than 30 minutes, will you move with me so we can be closer to him?

he didnt answer me.."

"i went into XXX's room and put my hand on his head and whispered, "but you'd never want to be that far from me. i know. i love you too baby!"

Your Baby can read!

Well ours will have to wait. 

After seeing his parents last week, Joe brought home a mysterious box.  My in-laws ordered the program advertised on TV called, Your Baby Can Read.  Not to bash the program, and I am sure it works if you have time!  But I don't have time to cut my fingernails when I want to half of the time!  Full time jobs, a dog, 2 kids under the age of 3 and a house....leaves little time to watch 3 videos a day and go through flash cards 4-5 times a day with both kids!

I guess they mean well, but when I actually think about it...
The program retails for:  $200! They didn't give my kids birthday gifts!  Can't afford dinner out...and have to borrow money for their cell phone bill...make sense to buy this program so a 6 month old can read?????

Birthday Cakes...

My son is turning 1 tomorrow. So we are having a small party for just family. My in-laws offerred to get the birthday cake. I thought that was very sweet of them.

The catch is...and there always seems to be a catch...my husband has to go pick it up and pay for it. They ordered it, but don't think they will get tot he party on time, so Joe has to drive about 40 minutes out of the way to get the cake...the craziness just never ends!

They live!!!!!

For some reason when I started this website, my husband did a covert mission to my in-laws house to take pictures and these lovely things were missing!

They are BAAACCCKKKK!

30 year old Cabbage patch dolls. My husband has a brother, no sisters (not to be sexist), these dolls were never their dolls. These were my mother in-law's dolls! For the past 30 years they have travelled with her from couch to couch. Pretty freaking scary!
